Abstract

An emergency transmitter apparatus designed to warn a motorist when an active emergency vehicle is in the area and/or of a hazardous condition in the area. The emergency transmitter apparatus can also be used by itself or with multiple emergency transmitters of similar type to set up an emergency warning perimeter. The apparatus transmits signals synchronized with those of other transmitters of similar type. A combination of signal generating and mixing will result in the transmission of frequencies that cover all of the frequencies that a motorist would typically be tuned to. The operator of the emergency transmitting apparatus will choose to transmit any one of numerous audio signals or detailed voice warnings. The operator of the emergency transmitter may also transmit a live audio warning by use of an input device. The emergency transmitter has a variable transmission power level output to allow adjustment for varying emergency and location factors.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An emergency transmitting apparatus for transmitting a signal during a hazardous or emergency situation on multiple frequencies simultaneously to radio frequency receivers in nearby motorists' vehicles, the emergency radio transmission apparatus comprising: 
 a) a method for generating electronic signals,    b) a method for modulating the generated electronic signals,    c) a method for receiving electronic input,    d) a method for transmitting modulated signals.    
   
   
       2 . The emergency radio transmission apparatus from  claim 1  wherein said electronic signal generating method further comprises generating electronic carrier signals equal in frequency to the radio frequencies of standard consumer satellite radio frequencies.  
   
   
       3 . The emergency radio transmission apparatus from  claim 1  wherein said method for mixing generated electronic signals further comprises mixing three base signals, one from each of the A.M., F.M., and C.B. bands, with other generated electronic signals that are multiples of the bandwidth for a corresponding band to produce a plurality of sideband signals equal to the frequencies of all standard A.M., F.M., and C.B. frequencies.  
   
   
       4 . The said method of receiving electronic input from  claim 1  further comprises: 
 a) A method of receiving electronic input from electronic memory devices,    b) A method of receiving electronic input by means of a microphone.    
   
   
       5 . A method for receiving and using a radio frequency signal, the method comprising the steps of: 
 a) A method for receiving said radio frequency signal,    b) A method for using said radio frequency signal to set an internal electronic clock signal.    
   
   
       6 . A method for using said internal clock signal from  claim 5  to synchronize said carrier signal and said electronic input signal in said emergency radio transmitter device to corresponding signals in similar emergency transmitter devices.  
   
   
       7 . A system for changing the power output of said emergency transmitting apparatus, the system comprising: 
 a) an external apparatus for adjustment of an electronic signal,    b) an internal circuit designed to receive said electronic signal from said external adjustment apparatus,    c) a method of changing power of transmitted signal in response to received electronic signal from said external adjustment apparatus.
